In general I want to work with stacks as well. However, I usually do
not use the tokens, as it is too hard to keep track on whether I am
enabling or disabling a token. I rather quick-tag the images nowadays
and use stars to mark the good ones... Previously I was thinking that
enabling tokens would be lower case and disabling upper case. That
would cause less confusion whether one is enabling or not. I
personally want to tag individual image so seldom that expanding a
stack and marking just one image is OK for me.
